Peter Norman, colored, was arrested by
Chief of Police Myers yesterday tor being
tho possessor of a dog upon which the tax
had not been paid. He was fined five
dollars and costs and, in deiault
of payment, was sent to the city jail for
nine clays. This is, perhaps, the first case
on record in which a violator ot the dog
ordinance has been imprisoned, and may
be considered a very forcible affirmation on
the part of Marshal Myers that tho law con
cerning dog tax shall and must be satis
fied, either by tho payment of the tax or the
surrender of the dog.
Thomas Montgomery was brought
into tho court of Magistrate Comings upon
a warrant sworn out by Street Tax Collec
tor Trabcr Alter, charging him with hav
ing failed to pay bis street tax. Tho pris
oner was found guilty and fined five dollars
and costs, failing to pay which, he was sent
to jail for uiue days. Thus Thomas, refus
ing to pay a dollar and a half or to work a
day and a half, will have ample opportun
ity to study tho beauties of jail life, and
while doing so, determino whether or not,
when his timu is out, he will pay tho tax or
run tho risk of another nine days confinement.
THE PRESIDENT. '
There wcro no new developments
in the caso yesterday. It was
unanimously agreed by the doctors
yesterday moruing that the best thing
they could do wns to move tho patient from

shooting, iu order that tho' room might be
thoroughly cleansed and purified. No
sooner was this agreed upon than it was
carried iuto execution. Tho room selected
for his temporary rufugo was directly across
tho corridor from the ouo heretofore occu
pied. It is believed by the doctors that
tho carpet of tliu sick chamber has become
impregnated by disease or disagrucablo
odor. : It has therefore been removed and
tho floor scrubPmd and the furniture clean
ed and aired.
Tho rcmoysl was accomplished without

THE NEW AMENDMENT.
The question whether or not county
judges, clerks and treasurers are to be elec
ted next fall continues to call forth anima
ted discussions from the newspapers, law
journals, the attorney general and others,
and much as has already been said upon
the subject, there is now nearly as much
difference of opinion as there ever was and
each party defends its position with as
much apparent conciousucss ot right as it
ever did.
The Bulletin did not join iu tho gen
eral discussion of this important subject
until recently, chiefly because there was so
much difference of opinion with regard to
the question at issuc.and tho authors of tho
law were themselves backward about giv
ing support to it. But recently the governor
who signed the new election law and some
of the highest judicial lights in the state, at
the suggestion of some of whom it was
passed, have, alter further deliberation,
reaffirmed the 'constitutionality of
the law aud have shown to tho satis
faction of any reasonable mind that
their positions aro well chonen. While the
opinion that no election can be held in
next November has received witliin the
last few weeks, and continues to receive,
converts in all parts of the state and from
the intelligent men in every occupation,
ycfjthcre aro those who, being well versed
in law, write and speak ably in support of
contrary positions. The argument in sup
port of holdin'g county elections, which
appears to have now the strongest hold, is
that of Attorney-General McCartney to tho
effect that the now amendment does not
take effect until 1882, and this argument is
ably supported by the Springfield Register
of Thursday in tho following editorial:
"Since writing an article yesterday on
"the election ot county officers," our atten
tion has been called to the opinion of Hon.
K. S. Leland, late circuit judge, published
lrj the Ottawa Freo Trader. The judge is a
democrat, but that fact should uotiufluence
an opinion on tho question. The supreme
court of Illinois might hold the samo as
Judge Leland holds, and of courtie the de
cision of that court would be conclusive
whether right or wrong. Until the supreme
court of Illinois decides otherwise, we will
adhere to our opinion. It is true, as a
matter ot law, that when the votes were
canvassed the amendment to the constitu
tion was adopted. But & law or constitu
tion may be operative either in the preient
or in the future. The laws passed by the
legislature, unless they contain an emer
gency clause.do not take Sector go into op
a? .! jv. A -. - a m -r . i ..
eratioD uuih ine nrst aoy oi juiy next aner
their passage. The legislature might have
passed a law providing that on and after
July 1st, 1890, all persona convicted of
rape, robbery or arson, should suffer death.
Yet it could not be claimed that such a
law would operate as a repeal ot the laws
now In force for the punishment of these
several crimes. The same may be said
with reference to the amendment to the
constitution. It might have provided for
the election of the officers named in 1892,
instead of 1882, and in such an event it
would hardly be claimed that the incum
bent could hold over untl that time.
Tho trouole with Judge Leland and with
all those who take tho opposite view is that
they indulgo in intendment or speculation
as to the intention which tho legislature
had in view when it submitted the proposed
amendment to the people. Constitutional
provisions should not be enlarged by intendments."
The editor of . the Register admits that
"it is true, as a matter ot law, that when
tho votes were canvassed the amendment to
the constitution was adopted." "But," he
continues; "a law or constitution maybe
operative either in the present or in tho
future," and suggests that the laws of the
legislature do not go into effect until the
firBt of July next, after their passage. The
editor's admission that the amendment was
adopted when the vote was canvassod is
fatal to his argument, for he might as well
admit that the amendment has been
in force from that moment. He docs not
seem to recognize any difference between a
law passed by a legislative body in pursu
ance of the will of tho soveriegn people ae
expressed in the constitution, and the con
stitution itself. He ignores the fact that
there is a law which expressly declares that
all legislative acts pasted by the leglsture
of Illinois shall not go inte effect until the
first of July next after the passage of such
act, that there is no st'( n law governing
a constitutional oraendment, adopted by
the highest anthonty in the stale i. e. tbo
people, and that the amendmeut itself con
tains nothing whatever that could bo inter
preted into such a meaning. He seems
also to have lost sight of the fact that the
constitution was declared to be
changed by the same ballots
which placed Governor Cullom,
Attorney-General McCartney, Secretary of
State Dement and the other state officers in
office and the editor will hardly dare to
doubt that the declaration of the ballots, so
far as it concerned these men, went into ef
fect at the time the result of the vote was
declared. Where is the law under the au
thority of which the ballots cast by the
people of Illinois can be, in effect, torn into
fragments, and a portion of them, contain
ing an important declaration, be consigned
to the state waste basket for a whole year
The editor of the Register cannot find if,
for there is no such law.
But the editor of the Register and al
who believe a he does, Attorney-General
McCartney included, make another fatal
admission when they say that the new
amendment does take effect in 1882; for if
the new amendment goeajnto effect in
1882, and an election fur the county officers
affected by it must be held in that year
then no legal election can bo held inNo-
vember, 1881. In support of this position
we will quote Attorney General McCart
ney's own argument, namely, that "the old
provision ot tho constitution is annulled
the moment it comes in conflict with the
new;" the question being only, "when dos
this take place, in 1881 or in 1882?
Attorney-General McCartney asserted that
it does not take place in 1882; and thaMyi
election must therefore be held under the
old! provisions next November; but he is
either not sincere in this assertion, or he
is very obtuse, or he has been very thought
less and opened his mouth before he bad
a good mental grip upon the subject. We
will grant, for the Bake of argument, that
this position be the correct one. The old
provision of ithe constitution, under which
Mr, McCartney proposes that
the election shall be held, requires
that the county judge, treasurer and clerk,
shall bo elected, uot for one, but for four
and two years. It does uot permit the
election of either of these officers for only
one year, aud there is no law under which
the governor could issue commissions for
only ono year to officers that had been elec
ted for twi. The officers elected under the
old provision would be entitled to hold
their offices for two and four years, or until
1883 and 1885, and would not that conflict
with the new provision, which, according
Mr. McCartney, is to go into effect in 1882?
Most certainly. It is plain therefore that,
even if the new provision does not become
a law until 1882, no election can legally
bo held under the old provision;
for such an election would conflict with
the new provision and such conflict, says
Attorney General McCartney, onnulls tho
old provision under which the election of
1881 is proponed to be held.
Tho argument ot tho editor of the Regis
ter that a law changing the punishment for
certain crimes from and alter 1890 would
not necessarily repeal all laws punishing
such crimes, now in existence, is not pertin
ent, for the simple reason that in such a
case, unlike as it is in the case of the elec
tion law, the enforcement of the
existing laws would not conflict with
the law of 1890. His other argument, that
the legislature "might have provided for
tho election ot the county officers in ques
tion in 1892 instead of 1882 and that in
such an event it would not be claimed that
the Incumbents could hold over until that
time," falls by the same process of reason
ing; for in that case the old law would not
conflict with the new until 1891 and not at
all In 1891, as does the amendment under
discussion.'' There can no legal election bo
held In Alexander or any other county m
November 1881. . .
